Chapter 257 - 257: Working With Zhang Cheng
Wanwan was simply amazing. They were the same age, but why did Wanwan get so much while she was being treated like a child?
Liu Hua fell into deep self-doubt.
Zhang Cheng’s eyes grew brighter and brighter. His heart throbbed even faster after checking out Xia Wan’s plans.
“Kid, you have a good design. It’s trendy and unique. If it’s completed, I believe that your shop will be filled with customers. This style could be considered unique in our county.
“How about this? Our factory will be responsible for all the materials you need.
I can also find a construction team for you. I will only charge you the cost price.”
Before Xia Wan could say anything, Xia Hai interrupted her, “That won’t do. Even though I helped you before, this is a completely different matter. You can’t start a losing business just because you’ve received a favor from me.” Xia Wan just smiled and didn’t say anything.
Zhang Cheng explained to Xia Hai, “Brother, I’m really not at a disadvantage here. If Xia Wan’s shop is completed, the other shops will definitely ask around and find out who she bought the materials from. Our factory will become famous, and our business will naturally increase. So, I’m not at a disadvantage.”
Xia Wan also nodded. “This is equivalent to a small advertisement that can increase your popularity.”
Zhang Cheng admired Xia Wan even more. He did not expect Xia Hai, a serious and rigid person, to have such a business-minded daughter.
“That’s right, so we really won’t suffer any losses.”
With Zhang Cheng and Xia Wan’s explana tion, Xia Hai finally understood. Xia Wan looked at Zhang Cheng. “There’s something I think I need to say.”
Zhang Cheng looked at her lovingly. “Go ahead.”
“Although this design is very good for my shop, it won’t be suitable for all,” Xia Wan said. “If someone comes to look for you to renovate your shop, I can do the design.”
Zhang Cheng’s eyes lit up when he heard this. “Then let’s talk about cooperating. ”
Xia Wan was then invited into the office while Xia Hai and the rest were led around by the manager. It was obvious that only the two of them would know about the details of this collaboration.
Only Xia Wan and Zhang Cheng were left in the office. Xia Wan did not beat around the bush and said directly, “If the owners of those shops come to you for renovations, tell them that the renovation price will be calculated separately. Ask them if they are willing to accept it. If they are willing, pay a deposit first, and I will give them part of the design. If they are satisfied, both parties will sign a contract.”
Zhang Cheng originally wanted to help Xia Wan plan how to cooperate with the owners of these shops. Little did he expect that she had thought of the whole process perfectly.
“Not bad, girl. You have a good business mind. If I didn’t see you with my own eyes and just heard you say this, I would have thought that you were an experienced businessman.”
Xia Wan smiled. “Be more detailed so that there are no loopholes.”
Zhang Cheng nodded. “Alright. Then it’s settled. I’ll get someone to print the documents later. Sign it. In the future, if someone asks you to do a design, I’ll tell you.”
“By the way, do you want it registered under your name? What name should I
Xia Wan thought for a moment. If she were to use her name, her identity would be exposed. She did not like the feeling of being noticed.
“Let’s use another nickname. Let’s call it Qinghe,” Xia Wan said.
“Alright, I’ll get someone to get the cooperation later.”
Zhang Cheng then discussed the details of the cooperation with Xia Wan before calling the staff over to help draft the contract.
An hour later, the two of them reached an agreement. Xia Wan had also chosen the materials she wanted to use. Some of them were already available, and some needed to be made separately. Zhang Cheng said that he could make everything Xia Wan needed in about seven days, and then they could start construction.
The renovation would take 14 days.
At that time, she had already started school and couldn’t keep an eye on the store herself. However, her store could be considered Zhang Cheng’s advertisement. She believed he wanted this store to be renovated to the best of his ability.
“Sure, no problem!”
Xia Wan paid 1,000 yuan upfront to purchase the materials. The other 1,000 yuan would be paid when the construction had started. As for the workers’ wages, it, too, would need 1,000 yuan. This amount would be settled once the construction was completed.
When Xia Hai and Liu Hua returned, they saw Zhang Cheng and Xia Wan chatting happily..
